UFC 229: The Great War 155lbs

With the noise created with Khabib, Conor continued to have the opportunity to compete with the defending champion after more than 1 year of absence. Although he returned to the forte level, both Conor’s body and ability to perform against Khabib were not equal to the previous match with Eddie Alvarez.

UFC 246: The first time reached 170lbs

Although at UFC 196 and UFC 202, Conor played as a Welterweight semi-mid-tier match, however, until UFC 246 met Donald Cerrone in early 2020, he officially reached 170lbs. This is also the time when the audience witnessed a massive Conor McGregor ever when stepping on the scale.

The audience will witness the third time Conor is present in this UFC weight division, however, the audience once again doubts that weight loss affects his ability to play. Because in the photos shared recently, the Irish puncher is still very muscular and has no signs of weight loss.

When Khabib announced his retirement, the Irish superstar is still considered to be able to dominate the lightest rank among the top fists. This is also the premise that brought him back to the glorious period when he was crowned four years ago, continuing with the blockbuster matches with other opponents.

UFC 196 / UFC 202: Revenge Diaz at 168lbs

At UFC 196, Conor challenged the lightweight champion (155lbs) Rafael Dos Anjos at the time. However, injury caused Dos Anjos to retreat, which forced the UFC to find Nate Diaz as an urgent alternative. The problem is that in the short term, Nate can’t cut weight in time and only accepts the match in the mid-tier.

At this point, Conor did not hesitate to respond when he paused the weight loss and increased the weight again, reaching a maximum of 168lbs. However, this had a great impact on his fitness and indirectly contributed to his first defeat at the UFC.

At UFC 196, for the first time, the Irish puncher had to change his weight loss plan. After a few months, with determination to regain revenge, Conor asked to re-fight Nate with the same old weight.

Currently, when Conor McGregor is absent, Khabib is the most attractive name UFC can go to the ring. Even if compared to the performance, the number 29-0 makes the Dagestan boxer’s name even more special.

In the hope of bringing Khabib back, Dana White’s president confirmed that the title of “Eagles” would be preserved. The UFC boss also said he persuaded Khabib to discuss again with his mother about his promise to stop playing.

Khabib Nurmagomedov surprised fans with the announcement to retire

From another perspective, Daniel Cormier is Khabib’s longtime teammate, believing that the actions of the UFC and chairman Dana White show how much they value this champion. Regarding Khabib’s retirement, Cormier said the UFC needs to find a really attractive opponent, not in terms of money to be able to bring Khabib back.

Conor McGregor will rematch Dustin Poirier

For Khabib to rethink his decision, the ability that Cormier gave was quite possible, when the Dagestan puncher once admitted, whoever defeated Dustin Poirier deserved the opportunity to compete. Conor McGregor will rematch Dustin Poirier if Khabib is absent.

The statement of UFC President Dana White shows the determination of the American boss to bring Khabib Nurmagomedov back to the ring. The 29th win at UFC 254 should be something worth celebrating by the fans of Khabib Nurmagomedov. However, his claim that this was his last match surprised the MMA world.

Khabib affirmed that he will fulfill his promise to his mother: he will not go to the top without his father. With the spirit of Khabib, it is not difficult to realize that the UFC’s No. 1 puncher will be determined to do what he said.

Usually, with the above statement, Dana White’s president will let the boxers decide whether to continue playing or not. But this American tycoon is very confident in the possibility that Khabib will return – even, White insisted that Khabib’s throne will still be inviolable.

About the return of Khabib, Daniel Cormier – his teammate at the American Kickboxing Academy has one option, that is to let Conor McGregor keep the title.

Israel Adesanya defeated Jan Blachowicz as a prerequisite to fight with Jon Jones

Can Israel Adesanya perform two goals at once against the two champions of the Lightheavyweight UFC weight class?

The information that Israel Adesanya will move to Light Heavyweight, declaring war on champion Jan Blachowicz was announced by UFC President Dana White over the weekend. The goal of winning 2 championships at the same time is clear to Israel Adesanya. However, the boxer wants to aim further. He wants to defeat Jon Jones.

Longtime UFC viewers understand that Jon Jones is a worthy name in both name and achievement compared to new king Jan Blachowicz. However, the loss of the title by Jones caused Adesanya to temporarily switch his target to Jan Blachowicz, all aiming for a blockbuster match with Jones in 2021.

In addition to Israel Adesanya, some other UFC superstars such as Conor McGregor are also aiming to return to the full crowd. In particular, Cowboys Stadiums has always considered the best choice with less than 100,000 spectators, or the plan as Adesanya proposed – Raiders Stadium can also welcome more than 70,000 people to the field.

However, to achieve that goal, Israel Adesanya needs to overcome a challenge called Jan Blachowicz. Besides, controlled translation of COVID-19 is also a prerequisite for Izzy’s requirements. The midsize champion believes his courage, which is much more than what Jon Jones has not dared to do in the past 10 years.

Light-Heavyweight UFC weight division means that Israel Adesanya will take on bigger opponents than before at Middleweight.

Over the years, Jon Jones – former Light-Heavyweight king – who is constantly appearing in Israel Adesanya’s trash-talk screens, has been mentioned by the audience about the promotion. Jon Jones has repeatedly been named as one of the boxers who need to be promoted.

And for Israel Adesanya, the decision to upgrade to Light-Heavyweight is the best excuse to prove himself better than Jon Jones in terms of courage. After the match against Jan Blachowicz was announced by UFC president Dana White himself, it can be said that Israel Adesanya has identified its next target. As long as they beat Jan by their advantages, “The Last Stylebender” will take a big step forward in the perfect plan that I drew.
